Farmers in the upper south-east may soon have to start paying a levy for the upkeep of the south-east drainage scheme.
Family First MLC Robert Brokenshire has attacked the decision in the State Budget to extract over $15 million into forward estimates from farmers .
He says he understands the need for money for the scheme but not the way it's to be raised
In a statement to the ABC, the Minister for Water Paul Caica said that the drainage system in the Upper and Lower South East has been progressively constructed with the aim of balancing the long term prosperity for the region.
As part of the transition from the construction to operation phase, the State Government has proposed for a levy to be raised to help ensure the effective management of the drainage network. Any future decision to progress a levy would be subject to a social impact assessment.
In this budget the Government has also allocated an additional $5.431 million to enable the operation and maintenance of the drainage network.Fri, 10 Jun 2011 16:31:00 +0930\xmlcontent\201106\3241264.xml1161 ABC South EastsoutheastsaEnvironment:Recycling and Waste Management:AllAustralia:SA:Mount Gambier 5290Mayor touts sewerage system benefitshttp://www.abc.net.au/news/stories/2011/04/29/3203490.htm?source=rss
